Bies
text:
Bies or bes is an evil spirit or demon in Slavic mythology. Under the influence of Christianity the word often became synonymous with chort. After the acceptance of Christianity the bies became identified with the devil, corresponding to the being referred to in Ancient Greek, as either daimon (δαίμων), daimónion or pneuma (πνεῦμα). For example, biesy is used in the standard Russian translation of Mark 5:12, where we have the devils entering the swine in KJV. Compare to Ukrainian bisy or bisytys
